Event: RMOC - Buena Vista
Orienteering race (Night-O Green) 1:40:00 [3] 4.5 mi (22:13 / mi) +846ft 18:52 / mi
slept:6.0 weight:128lbs shoes: Saucony Razor (Snow)
Night-O at Buena Vista. Standing around in the freezing cold and wet snow while the start was delayed for an HOUR was slightly miserable, but I had a lot of fun (and warmed up a lot) once I finally got started.
My new-ish bike commuting light is my brightest light by far (compared to my cheap, wimpy Petzl), but it's not set up to be attached to a person's head like a normal headlamp. So, I tried something I saw Carolyn doing last year: I just wore my bike helmet with the light attached. ;-) I probably looked like a huge nerd, but it worked great.
Other than taking 26 minutes to find #3, I think I did pretty well (second place overall). My compass had a bubble in it the entire time, which was incredibly annoying (and might be partially to blame for my error at #3). Also, somehow I got a map that didn't have the last control marked (Sherry created a Green course on the fly, as a subset of the Red course), but I got credit for finishing anyway (rather than MSP), since I had gone right past it.
